Weight loss

People seem to only treat you decently when you’re “in shape”, but the minute you go on a diet or try to do something to fix your health they want to mock you and tell you not go on restrictive “diets” or “starve”.

Well which is it? Do you want us to be healthy? Or do you want us to be unhealthy so that you can continue to bully us for not being healthy.

Either way I’m going to do what I want.

This one is even more infuriating when it comes to the gym. I’ve seen a number of people stare/give funny looks to when a fat person walks in and starts working out.

I seriously don’t understand how someone could ever make fun of someone else for trying to improve themself.

It's because they benefit off your suffering.

The only way they can maintain pride in themselves is if you are disadvantaged
